Abbeville Wedding Photos

One of the more out there toasts we heard at Sarah and Alistair’s wedding was to Mark Zuckerberg. Why you may ask?
Well by some bizarre glitch in Facebook, Sarah and Al who were complete unknowns to each other – ended up as Facebook Friends.
In Sarah’s words:
“Well…. I get a Facebook notification one day that says Alistair has accepted your friendship request….
Who? I had never seen or heard of him before so had a look at his page and though ‘Oooo he’s cute’. I won’t ask how we know each other because I should probably know.
A couple of weeks later a message pops up and he says “Hi! I’m sorry but how do we know each other?”
I laughed and said I have no idea but we decided it wouldn’t hurt to have a new friend.
We were friends for 2 and a half years before we actually started dating. But had become very good friends online over facebook in that time. Turns out we are perfect together”.
Carrying on with the Facebook theme of their relationship – Sarah and Al have become known as the King and Queen of selfies – so it was only fitting that straight after their “first kiss” they took their very first ‘selfie’ as husband and wife.
